What is the recommended clearance between fluid lines and electrical wiring?

The recommended clearance between fluid lines and electrical wiring is at least 6 inches. This distance helps to mitigate the risk of fluid leaks damaging electrical components or causing short circuits and electrical failures. When fluid lines are too close to electrical wiring, there is an increased chance of fluid contamination from leaks, which can lead to corrosion or shorting of electrical systems, potentially creating hazardous situations. Maintaining this minimum clearance ensures safety and reliability in the operation of the system, allowing for easier maintenance and inspection as well.
